Coworking Space: Coworkingness in Poznan

Coworkingness is the place to be when you are looking for a temporary or even a long-term office. It provides all the facilities and has great connectivity. It's located in the city centre close to public transport and restaurants. The place is always packed with young professionals. It has great coffee, tea and water. There is a fridge. The building is accessible during the week and if you ask nicely they open up for you during the weekend. Access can be provided with a key. So if you need a desk or an office, do not hesitate coworkingness is the place.

To be a great coworking or office space, you need the following: -Freedom from egregious noise -24/7 access with key cards -Decent kitchen & coffee Unfortunately Coworkingness, despite its friendly community and great location, doesn't have this. The rooms are relatively small, with hard wood floors, so if you have a noisy coworker shouting on the phone often (as I did) you'll find it hard to concentrate. I also felt like I was making a huge amount of noise walking past everyone on the squeaky, click-clacking hardwood floors. There's a reason 'professional' offices have carpet - it eliminates noise from foot traffic, and absorbs sound overall. The desk size is reasonable, but my chair was butting up against another desk. Whenever someone wanted to get past me, I would have to squeeze forward a bit. The office is technically accessible after hours and on weekends, but deserted and technically closed. There is no key-card access either, and many people didn't have keys at all - you'd have to be buzzed in by another coworker. The internet speed when I was there was about 100/100, shared between 20 people. It wasn't a problem for my work, but it seems strange to have such a low speed in a country where fibre connections are so cheap. The kitchen was very weak, too small, without even a microwave (!) when I was there. The refrigerator was overfull, generally too small, and some days the kitchen would smell mildly of garbage. There was a small pod coffee machine, with a supply of pods that you can buy (money in a jar), but you'd have to supply your own milk! The location was great though, and the other coworkers were very friendly. There were lots of places nearby to eat. Overall this is the kind of place suitable if you are a remote employee for another company or working on a small and straightforward existing online business. Anything more than that - rapidly scrambling to assemble a hot startup, for instance - requires the kind of comfort (from noise) and 24/7 access that unfortunately Coworkiness does not offer. Coworking spaces in Poland overall, outside of Krakow and Warsaw, seem to be very weak, so this is still the best Coworking space available in Poznan, but if you're coming from other international tech hubs or from coworking spaces in Western Europe you'll be disappointed. I think the Coworking spaces in 2nd-tier Polish cities like Poznan need some kind of direct local Government support to get them up to an international best standard.

I intended to work from Coworkingness for a month and ended up staying there almost a whole year. The community is just wonderful and full of talent. The property is spacious, comfortable and in a great location. The internet is blazing quick. Oskar does a great job of running the place and has beautifully curated an incredible community of professional talent from various backgrounds. Plenty of get-togethers and fun to be had off-work as well. Highly recommended!

Coworkingness is the amazing place to work and to meet creative people. What is more it is perfectly located in the center of Poznań.

Coworkingness is extraordinary place in Poznań downtown. I found there amazing people, great equipment and freshly ground coffee ;).

I have worked here for more than a year :) I truly think that it's the best space in Poznań. I checked almost every Coworking places in the city and chose this :) Big space, confortable spots, hand open for foreginers and owner's mind full of unusuall ideas! Highly recommend! :))

Coworkingness is the perfect place to work and meet creative people!

Super productive and quiet in working hours, friendly and social in between them. Exactly what I was searching for! :) A few foreigners welcomed by mainly truly great locals in a well organized tenure. What to ask more? A yeah, dishwasher and microwave maybe, but it's just a detail ;)

If you work in an office, who do you talk to? What do you do? You're on a treadmill, waiting for time to pass, and finish your assignments (at least I was). Now here, you are surrounded by ambitious, hard working, interesting people from all over the world, who all can contribute to your progress in one way or another, and it works both ways. Frequent social events and a general atmosphere of friendliness and collaboration is what characterizes this place for me. This, plus the fact that no one slacks off, lets me deal with procrastination in a way I did not think was possible. This place is innovative, well administered and inspiring. I can see myself still visiting for years to come.

In addition of being perfectly located in Poznan city center, coworkingness has a professional fiber internet connection which is a highly valued commodity for an internet startup. Considering this point and the overall price of the rent, coworkingness is an unbeatable value for money. Finally, the office space itself has been designed to offer a comfortable and productive environment.

The place is located at the very center of the city (5 minutes walk to the Rynek) in a nice historical building. It is clean and it has everything you need for a productive working environment: convenient chairs, standard height desks, a standing desk, Wi-Fi and wired connection should you need one, printer/scanner, free tea and coffee, a small kitchen with a fridge and mini-oven. The owner is really friendly and will always help you, or will provide you with the right contact. I've been renting a desk at Coworkingness for a year already and I'd say it's the best coworking space in Poznan.
